I've been trying really hard lately not to waste produce. Some days I succeed, others I fail. That's just life. Last week I had a huge amount of green beans sitting in my refrigerator from the Washington's Green Grocer deliveries I've started ordering lately. I did not feel like fussing with them by making something complicated. Instead, I decided to do one of the easiest things you can do with most vegetables (other than eating them raw): roasting.

What to do with Too Many Green Beans? Roast Them!Ingredients
green beans {I did not even bother trimming the ends}
olive oil
salt
Southwest spice blend

Directions
1. Preheat the oven to 450F.
2. Place green beans directly onto a cookie sheet in a single layer. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and Southwest spice blend. Mix.
3. Roast the beans 20-30 minutes, occasionally turning them around.
